"As the last hope of mankind, Miskatonic University cannot be as cautious as ordinary universities. Students are not even allowed to use electrical appliances. Therefore, it is not easy for students in certain majors to keep strange things in their dormitories.
Normal, or maybe doing some weird experiments."
Liu Xing stretched and continued: "So what should we do today? If nothing else happens, we won't be able to crack the code of the ruins today, so we will have another day of nothing to do."
"What else can we do? We can only think about life here, unless we want to find some excitement and catch that witch whose whereabouts are unknown." Ding Kun shook his head and said: "But this is a bit troublesome. That witch and
We don't have anything to do with her, we don't need to do anything to her, and it seems that this witch is not a fuel-efficient person, so we may suffer a big loss under her hands."
"Yes, a witch is a composite profession. Who knows what tricks she can use. Besides, we are unfamiliar with the place. How can we investigate the whereabouts of this witch? Besides, don't forget one thing. This is
There are other countries on the island where Earthsea is located, so if we are not careful, we may go to the wrong place, and then there will be trouble waiting for us."
Yin En shrugged and said: "Besides, our appearance is too special in this place, so wherever we walk, we will attract people's attention. The word stands out - conspicuous, so we will be discovered by the witch soon. When the time comes, the hunter
The identity of the prey may be reversed... and the most important thing is that even if we catch this witch, we will not get much benefit from the remaining family members of the chief, not to mention that these benefits are for us
It’s of no use at all.”
Hearing what Yin En and others said, Liu Xing could only shake his head and said: "Well, then we can only live a boring day, or there are still many days, after all, the code of this ruins is not that easy to crack.
.”
"So Liu Xing, why don't you try to contact Sirius and ask him to tell us the password of this ruins? Even if it doesn't work, you can hand over the language system of this ancient civilization. As long as we know the meaning of the words of this ancient civilization,
Then it will be much easier to crack the password."
Faced with Zhang Jingxu's proposal, Liu Xing could only helplessly shake his head and said seriously: "If this could be done, I would have contacted Sirius long ago, because I don't want to waste time here; but Sirius
This guy didn't leave any contact information at all, so I have no way to contact him now, so we can only sit down and wait for Norton and others to crack the password."
Liu Xing thought for a while and continued: "By the way, I think this should be regarded as a necessary process for this main mission, because the ruins of this ancient civilization need a certain amount of time to restart those biological traps or make some other arrangements."
"That's right. Just like the gravity problem discovered by Brother Ding before, we can find that there are still many things in the ruins of this ancient civilization that can operate normally, so this also proves that today's ruins still have certain capabilities.
Functions must include some defense facilities, so in order to give us a complete game experience in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, we can only use password locks to delay our entry into the ruins."
Zhang Jingxu spread his hands and said: "But we can't do anything about this, because we don't understand cryptography at all. After all, this skill is the least popular in the Cthulhu team game, unless it is already mentioned in the introduction of the module.
Writing this module requires cryptography skills, otherwise no one would take the initiative to ask for cryptography skills in the real world."
Liu Xing deeply agrees with this.
In Cthulhu Running games in the real world, as long as the module does not make special provisions, players will basically only click on some commonly used skills, such as detection, listening and persuasion. After all, in Cthulhu Running
There are only so many skill points that can be used in the game... Of course, some players like to do everything, so they will add some weird skills to add fun and trick their teammates.
For example, the jumping skill of the character card "Liu Xing" basically has no effect at ordinary times. For example, in the more than ten modules that Liu Xing has experienced so far, it was only used in the castle module at the beginning.
It worked for a while, and then Liu Xing never used this skill again.
Just when Liu Xing was thinking about the areas where his jumping skills could be used to great effect, Norton led a little girl over.
"Liu Xing, do you know this little girl? She said she knew you. She saw you in the park in the city yesterday, but you left directly without having time to say hello to you."
Hearing what Norton said, Liu Xing and others looked at the little girl with puzzled faces, because Liu Xing and others did not know this little girl who was obviously of Latin descent, or a local of Earthsea.
.
What is going on? Is it a case of porcelain?
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, feeling that this little girl was here to meet his group. The reason was still the same - his group was really conspicuous in Earthsea, and others would not forget it after seeing it, so this
After the little girl saw her group yesterday, she wanted to get some benefits from her group, or to take refuge in her group, so she told Norton that she knew her group.
Liu Xing and others exchanged glances with each other and confirmed that everyone had the same idea.
Then, Liu Xing nodded and said: "Yes, we just met this little girl yesterday. We didn't expect that she would come to us now. This is really troublesome for you, Mr. Norton."
When Norton heard what Liu Xing said, he guessed the cause and effect of the matter. However, since Liu Xing and others had no other opinions, he didn't say anything more and left with a smile.
After Norton left, Yin En smiled and said to the little girl, "Little girl, what's your name?"
The little girl also smiled and said, "My name is Isabella, Uncle Yin En."
Isabella?!
Except for the newcomers Tian Qing and Li Mengyao, Liu Xing and others looked at the little girl in surprise.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you people are really superficial. You only care about other people's appearance, but not their soul."
As the little girl spoke, she performed a face change for Liu Xing and others.
It's really Isabella.
Only then did Liu Xing remember that when she was in Duoh Town in the island country, Isabella had said that she was going to come to South America to find someone, but she didn't expect that her group of people actually met in the Kingdom of Earthsea.
But it seems that Isabella has not found her friend.
As a result, Liu Xing guessed wrong again.
"This really flooded the Dragon King Temple. I was shocked when I saw you arriving in the villa yesterday, because I really didn't expect you to appear in a place like Earthsea, but the most important thing now is
It’s better for you to call Taketori back so that she won’t trouble us again.” Isabella said seriously.
Liu Xing asked in surprise: "What, Isabella, you were also in the villa yesterday, so that means the witch is your friend?"
"Yes, that witch is the friend I mentioned before. I didn't expect that someone as smart as her would capsize in the gutter and be tricked by the chief of the Earthsea Kingdom. If I hadn't arrived in time, she would still have died.
It is really possible that she will become the chief’s daughter-in-law.”
Isabella sat down and said: "You should also know about the chewing tobacco that can control people, right? In fact, this kind of chewing tobacco is the unique secret recipe of the chief of the Earthsea Kingdom, because the most important raw material is only from the Earthsea Kingdom.
Only the War Chief owns it, and this raw material comes from my brother Gary."
Speaking of this, Isabella's expression became very serious, "I thought that my brother was dead, otherwise I would not be able to get rid of his control, but I got a message from the chief, that is, I
My brother gave him the tobacco half a year ago and taught him how to make chewing tobacco! This means that my brother may not have died, but took the opportunity to hide in the darkness!"
Hearing what Isabella said, Liu Xing's expression became serious, because among the players present, he was the only one who had had an interaction with Gary, and it could even be said to be a conflict.
"I also thought about it carefully. Although my brother's fighting ability is indeed worrying, he was not beaten by a ghoul without any resistance. What's more important is that the ghoul has not been heard from since.
This is also very abnormal; so to sum up, I think my brother should have put on a good show of a golden cicada coming out of his shell, making us mistakenly think that he was really eaten by a ghoul, and then he hid in secret to do it.
Some small actions...but I don't know why he did this, because he can do these things openly, there is no need to fake his death." Isabella said doubtfully.
Liu Xing thought for a while and then came up with the possibility that Gary did not do this out of his original intention, but that someone was behind it and contributed to it.
That's right, this is Baihe City!
Liu Xing suspected that Baihecheng had already planned to cause trouble, so he took the time to find and persuade Gary to cooperate with him, and the fake death drama should also be directed by Baihecheng.
As for why he did this, Liu Xing felt that White River City wanted Gary to be its secret agent and trump card, to do some things for him in secret, and to stand up and launch surprise attacks when necessary. After all, in terms of Gary's ability
, it is better to hide in the dark and sneak up on ghosts.
But why did Gary go to the Kingdom of Earthsea to teach the chief of the Kingdom of Earthsea how to make chewing tobacco that can control people? Could it be that White River City also took a fancy to the Kingdom of Earthsea and planned to use chewing tobacco to control everyone in the Kingdom of Earthsea?
Then he can become the new chief of Earthsea with unanimous votes?
This is a bit too outrageous.
At this time, Isabella said: "Regarding the matter of chewing tobacco, I have found some useful clues. First of all, the most important material I just mentioned, because the planting conditions are relatively special and somewhat harsh, so the chief
The family has been planting for about half a year and has only harvested a little raw material. However, one of the chief's sons improved some technologies half a month ago, which can greatly improve production efficiency, so the chief is preparing to promote it to the local area.
It is cultivated in various parts of the country and then upgraded from chewing tobacco to electronic cigarettes.”
Hearing the three words "e-cigarette", Liu Xing frowned and said: "Chewing tobacco is now considered a very niche hobby. After all, it is not as convenient and quick as smoking directly, and today's e-cigarettes are also considered
Riding on the trend, it has become the first choice of many young people, so upgrading from chewing tobacco to e-cigarettes. This kind of industrial upgrade can broaden the audience, and it can also directly enter America's market.
market, Gary will be able to use this to control a large number of young people... All in all, Gary's ambitions are really quite big."
"I thought so too, and I also found out that an e-cigarette brand has been registered under the name of the great chief, and the manufacturer is also located in the capital of the Kingdom of Earthsea. However, I followed the address and found that it was just
The real factory is actually somewhere else, so it can be seen from this that there must be something wrong with this e-cigarette."
Isabella continued seriously: "Originally, my friends and I planned to continue to pry the chief's family members yesterday to see if they knew more information, but Liu Xing and your friends came first.
At the same time, those bodyguards didn’t know when they were controlled by others, but more importantly, my friend and I suddenly felt a huge pressure, so we had to choose to escape, because our intuition told ourselves-if we don’t
If we left, we might have to reveal that we were in the villa, so the two of us chose to run away, and then we were chased everywhere by Taketori."
"I see, no wonder you didn't show up yesterday, but it seems that this is probably Gary's fault, because as the founder of chewing tobacco, he knows how to use chewing tobacco better than us." Yin En.
He touched his chin and said: "And it seems that the chief's family should know better information, so Gary chose to silence them. Maybe the e-cigarette factory has started production and has even started shipping to America.
Already."
"So my friend and I planned to search the entire country of Earthsea to see where the factory was."
Isabella said very seriously: "Although I don't know why Gary did this, I know that it is definitely not a good thing to let him continue to do this, so if there is a chance, I must stop him and destroy his factory! But if there is a chance, I must stop him and destroy his factory!"
Before that, Liu Xing, you still have to call Zhutori back to prevent her from following us around again."
As soon as Isabella finished speaking, Taketori appeared in front of her.
